Merry Christmas

A brief update because it has been a while since the last posting. Matt and I are getting ready for some much needed vacation this week. But, since Matt is on call 24/7, we will be satisfied if he does not have to spend the night at a building for the holidays.

It is currently snowing and quite windy as I look outside. Makes me appreciate not having a driveway to shovel. We had a Christmas get-together with my family yesterday, and my sister planned it very well. Since yesterday was also my mother's birthday, we had two occasions for the price of one and seven hours of food and family. The boys got a Wii for Christmas, so we tried out some of the games. Connor beat me in tennis 2-1, but it was a lot of fun. I even woke up with a sore bicep this morning.

I can hear Matt downstairs dealing with paperwork for the office and Goliath is sleeping next to me as I type. Overall, a pretty low key afternoon, but all that should change in a few hours when we take Cole to see Sweeney Todd. Matt and I saw the stage production a few weeks ago, but I cannot resist the Burton/Depp duo. It should be fun. Maybe we will come home and watch our copy of Sleepy Hollow. But what I really want to see is the 1945 version of Christmas in Connecticut, a holiday classic!

Merry Christmas everyone
